A fraudster who set up a Sikh religious charity as a front for an illegal immigration racket has been jailed.
Ravinder Singh, 57, helped forge visa applications for Indian migrants wanting to remain in Britain, charging up to £4,000-a-head for the service.
The mortgage advisor falsely claimed the applicants were qualified 'ministers of religion' who were in the UK to carry out Sikh ceremonies and teaching on behalf of his charity.
Their bogus sponsorship applications allowed them to later seek full UK citizenship.
However Singh's 'clients' did little or no religious work and instead secured other paid jobs. They then 'donated' part of their income to the charity, allowing Singh to pay their 'wages' as preachers.
The sophisticated scam was uncovered after one of Singh's business associates discovered his identity had been stolen and was being used in 56 separate visa applications.
Singh, of Whitefield, Greater Manchester, was jailed for 27 months after admitting three charges of conspiracy to assist unlawful immigration between 2011 and 2013.

A penny-pinching restaurant boss was today jailed for six years after being found guilty of killing a customer by serving him a meal containing ground peanuts and triggering a fatal allergic reaction.
Mohammed Zaman, 53, used cheaper ground peanuts at his restaurants, rather than almond powder, resulting in the manslaughter of nut allergy sufferer Paul Wilson, 38, in North Yorkshire.
Mr Wilson never recovered after eating a takeaway curry from the Indian Garden in Easingwold, despite telling staff he could not eat nuts – and a judge has now blasted Zaman as ‘reckless’.
Recorder of Middlesbrough Judge Simon Bourne-Arton said Zaman had built up his businesses since arriving in Britain 40 years and gathered a property portfolio worth more than £2million.
He added: ‘You threw all that away. You have done so in pursuit of profit. You have done so in such a manner as to bring about the death of another individual. Paul Wilson was in the prime of his life. He, like you, worked in the catering trade. He, unlike you, was a careful man.’

The woman was approached from behind and pushed over, before the male suspect ran off past Pizza Express towards St Paul’s Street.
The man was described as olive skinned, possibly eastern European, and aged 25 to 30.
Detective Constable Simon Daley, of West Yorkshire Police, said: “We have conducted an extensive trawl of CCTV cameras in the area and although we have no viable images of his face, he does appear to be wearing a distinctive black jacket with a blue and white striped patch on each shoulder.
“We believe the suspect went to the Beeston area after the offence and we would like to hear from anyone who knows someone who wears a jacket like that, fits the general description and has links to Beeston.

A cheating Romanian who thought he could escape justice by fleeing back home spent almost three weeks in jail after being caught at Pembroke Dock as he embarked off a ferry from Ireland.
Christian Iancu, aged 28, had been part of a three man gang who travelled to Pembrokeshire to try a new method of scamming cash machines.
Iancu, and fellow countrymen Lucian Ghiurcuta, aged 29, and Mihai Patrascu, 25, devised a “glue and jell” capturing device they inserted into an ATM at the Lloyds bank in Main Street, Pembroke, in 2012.
The machine “swallowed” the debit card of the next person to use the cash point but the scam failed to work because the trio were not able to retrieve the card and the pin number.
However, they had more luck at the cash machine outside the Tesco store in Tenby.
Kay Kees failed to get her card back but Iancu and his friends then spent almost £1,000 of her money gambling at a Ladbrokes betting shop.
In 2014 Ghiurcuta and Patrascu were jailed for nine months and eight months respectively, the sentences suspended for two years.
But Iancu stayed in Romania until May 3 when police in Pembroke arrested him as he left the ferry.
